    The TCS Reference ID or Number seems to be one of the top issues faced TCS NextStep portal users. We have been constantly receiving complaints about incorrect reference ID, lost reference number and the Reference ID itself not working on the TCS nextstep registration portal. I've created this specific discussion to address all such queries and help our fellow engineering graduates.

    TCS mentions that your username on the portal itself is your CT/DT reference number. Fortunately, there is a dedicated helpline offered by TCS to solve all the queries. Please note following support email and phone: ilp.support@tcs.com and phone number 1800-209-3111. If you want to contact them, please call anytime between Monday to Friday : 8 AM - 8 PM. Please remember the email Id with which you registered on the portal, because that will be used to track your application.

    Obviously, if you have forgotten your email ID, there is a little chance that TCS executive will be able to help you. Also note that anyone at CrazyEngineers cannot give you your lost reference ID / number. We can only point you to the right support page.

    I wish to know if you've tried contacting their official support yet? Even though we want to help you out, there's no way we can go beyond a point. I think most of the queries here can only be addressed by the TCS NextStep team members.

    If anyone of the official member of the TCS Next Step team is reading this discussion, I'd request them to join in and offer some help. It looks like a lot of our student engineers are facing issues.

    I'd also like to request those who know the answer to above legit questions to come forward and offer some help. Helping each other without expecting anything in return is the overall motto of CE Community 😀

    Check the javascript console in your browser. That should tell you what the problem is.

    Your best bet now is to contact the TCS NextStep officials and inform them about the issue. I doubt there's anything we can do. Apparently it's an error in their system.

    That said, I wonder how could an established company could build a system with so many errors. We keep on receiving problems with TCS NextStep portal almost on daily basis. Hope team TCS is looking into the issue.

    Update. There seems to be lot of confusion about the CT and DT Id that TCS Campus Commune provides. All candidates, please be informed that these IDs should not really matter to the candidates. The CT Id refers to the college campus that TCS is recruiting candidates from and the DT Id refers to the off-campus drives that TCS conducts nationwide. 

    It's not possible to change CT/DT Ids. If you need official help regarding your ID, your best bet is to contact the TCS officials and request for help. 

    In most of the cases, it's advisable that you create a new account using entirely new email ID and contact details and then request TCS for deleting your old account. 

    PS: I'm not sure if TCS actually allows doing this anymore. Can someone confirm?

    Difficult to answer. I'm not sure which form got you the interview call. Typically, you should carry the form that you filled in order to apply for the interview. 

    Does the form have any "ID" or unique identifier? 

    If you've lost the form; just carry the form that you have. Explain the situation, if asked.

    Hello Sir/madam ,

    This is HARIHARAN NATARAJAN with the reference id : CT20182529503 and email id:hariharan_natarajan@outlook.com. I'm writing this in concern to my NextStep portal account, My account got locked due to the 3 wrong attempts for password. When I try to click on forgot password, the provided password doesn't help me to login to the portal. Im getting a popup saying"Your account has been locked due to 3 incorrect login attempts. You will receive a mail with instructions to unlock your account." yet I didn't receive any email with such instructions but i receive  mails if i click and try forgot password. I request your help for unlocking my account.

                                            Thanks and regards. Good day!
